I think Hicks is having 'jelly legs' now. Gillet seems calmer looking at all these transfer prices. Don't know what kind of financial position they are in, but certainly they are no where near the capacity that the Russian 'czar' has.
In my opinion, 17mil is too much to ask. Most players are way overpriced anyway. Gradually, it is becoming clear that expensive players may be generating media interests but no necessarily league points or championships!
Maybe Hicks & Gillet are hoping/waiting for prices to come down (like share market trading) before giving their approval for Rafa to buy. To some extent I agree with these two jokers - whatever happened to that very, very important business term = RETURNS!!!?
